The post Browse files of GitHub repositories comfortably appeared first on BardTech . Insight.io for Github is a browser extension for the Google Chrome web browser that adds a directory tree structure to Github repositories to browse all files of the repository comfortably. Browsing repositories on GitHub is not the most pleasant experience that you can have; you can only select one directory to open to display the file it contains. The loading takes a bit of time and going back to open another directory takes time as well. Also, this is quite bad for keeping an overview of the files of the project. While you can download the repository to your system or use GitHub’s desktop application , it is not always the best course of action especially if you are just interested in a couple of files (to download or check). Tip : The Ghacks user.js for Firefox is on GitHub . If you download a lot, check out GitHub Plus for Chrome . Insight.io for Github Insight.io for Github is a Chrom...
